"W-what...?" li Hao's ears buzzed, "That's fast..."
Li Hao clenched his teeth and when he raised his head, he found the Nascent Soul already standing right before him.
"Good sword, boy." The Nascent Soul smiled mockingly, "If you hadn't fended off my attack, maybe you wouldn't have felt the pain."
"Now, it's time for you to die." when that Nascent Soul raised the scythe sword in his right hand, a voice came from behind and made him stop his intention.
"Stop that..."
When the Nascent Soul turned its back, it found an old man who was smiling thinly with both hands folded behind his waist.
"You...?" Nascent Soul widened his eyes and he had not had time to say any further, his head suddenly shattered then not long after that his body fell to the floor.
Bruugh!
At the moment it happened, the aura seeping out from the Nascent Soul's body instantly disappeared without a trace. All the participants who were lying on the floor due to the pressure from the aura started to rise one by one.
While Li Hao simply remained silent in place and tried to cover all his injuries with Qi.
On the other hand, Zhang Hai who had already risen to his feet immediately ran over to Li Hao. His current expression looked alarmed when he saw the injuries sustained by the young man, he then took out a few pills from his storage ring before saying, "Tow down all these pills, although it doesn't directly heal you but it can at least recover some of your wounds."
Zhang Hai placed the pills into Li Hao's mouth, and the pain and injuries he suffered began to diminish after swallowing them for a while
"Pil is good, but not good enough to recover him." an old geezer stood beside Zhang Hai who was squatting down, saying, he smiled faintly then looked at Li Hao who was still sitting limp in his place, "What an abnormal child."
The old grandfather stroked his long beard before taking out a dark brown pill, it flew towards Li Hao's mouth and made the young man have to swallow it.
A moment after Li Hao managed to swallow it, all the wounds on his body began to slowly recover. Starting from small wounds to the most severe injuries.
In less than a minute alone, all the injuries sustained by Li Hao had been successfully healed. Zhang Hai who witnessed that with his own eyes could only be shocked in silence.
"I'm sure you can move now."
When the old grandfather said so, Li Hao began to move his body. He had no idea he would recover so soon.
"Thank you for your help, sir." Li Hao hurriedly got up to his feet and cupped his hands, while Zhang Hai who had been daydreaming immediately gasped and followed what Li Hao had done.
"Hohoho... I should have thanked him. If you hadn't stalled all this time, maybe all the younger generation gathered here would have died." the old man replied calmly, then a sigh escaped from his mouth, "I guess the Dao of the Heavens is still blessing this land."
"Chairman!"
A middle-aged man had suddenly appeared behind the long-bearded old geezer while kneeling down and with his head lowered.
"Oh, is the situation outside under control? Should I step in?"
"The situation outside has started to get under control, all the Immortal enemies have fled after sensing your presence."
"Hohoho, it turns out they still know themselves."
"I...? I am the Chairman of the Celestial Peak clan, have you heard of it?"
Zhang Hai who heard that instantly widened his eyes perfectly until he took a few steps back in shock, Li Hao also reacted the same but not to retreat like the young man nearby.
The Heavenly Peak Clan was the strongest clan residing in the Ancient Land. As powerful as the clan was, there was a rumor that said that the Heavenly Peak clan controlled almost the entire Ancient Land region.
And the figure of the ruler behind the Celestial Peak clan was named Liang Jie, one of the oldest and strongest cultivators in the World.
"W-how could a person as great as you be here...?" Zhang Hai asked in a stammered voice.
"Hm, I have affairs on this land and accidentally feel a surge of powerful energy gathering in one place. So I checked it out and found this city that was in a mess..." Liang Jie explained briefly, then her attention turned to Li Hao, "What sect or clan are you from?"
"Ah, I'm just an ordinary traveler, sir." Li Hao replied, his voice sounding nervous.
Liang Jie narrowed her eyes then shook her head slowly, "It's impossible that you can be this strong without help from anyone, I think there's something you can't tell."
Li Hao immediately held his breath and could only smile bitterly. While Liang Jie who saw the young man's reaction no longer scouted his origins any further, "If you weren't in any shade, would you like to be part of the Celestial Peak clan? There are many beautiful women there..."
When Liang Jie said so, the middle-aged man nearby immediately coughed softly and looked at the Clan Leader with a complicated look, "Chairman, why are you talking like that?"
"Haha... I'm just talking about facts, there's no need to be serious about that." Liang Jie laughed quite loudly, then looked back at Li Hao, "So, what's your answer?"
After Li Hao got the question, a blue screen appeared in front of him and informed him that the mission had been completed. He immediately removed the notification because there was still something he needed to think about.
"I'm sorry, sir. However, I still do not want to be tied to a group..." Li Hao declined the offer, then explained his reason for wanting to wander in this vast World.
Liang Jie nodded her head a few times as Li Hao explained the reason. After the young man finished, he smiled and said, "Well if you decide to refuse. But keep in mind, the door of the Heavenly Peak clan will always be open for you, you can come at any time if you want to be one of us."
"I understand. Thank you for respecting my decision, sir." Li Hao cupped his hands while bowing his body as a sign of his respect.
"Haha... No need to be so stiff! Then, see you soon, young man!" Liang Jie turned around without stopping her laughter, the middle-aged man nearby directly followed the old man from behind in silence.
The few Immortal entered the waiting room before Liang Jie walked out from there, their expressions not too surprised and directly giving a respectful greeting.
They did some pleasantries for a while before finally Liang Jie and the middle-aged man who followed him left from there. The Immortals chatting with Liang Jie directly checked the state of the participants they had relationships with.
On the other hand, Zhang Hai exclaimed loudly and momentarily made all attention be on him. Li Hao himself also looked at the young man nearby, he could see his eyes twinkling as if he had just seen something amazing.
"Crazy! Why did you refuse his offer?!" Zhang Hai held onto both shoulders of Li Hao then shook them quickly.
Li Hao himself only wore a flat expression, why was Zhang Hai so excited when he was not the one who got the offer.
Seriate.....
